M (months),the number of months needed release sterile or incompatible male mosquitoes; S, the number of sterile/ incompatible male mosquitoes released into field per km2; C (competition), the mating competition coefficient between the sterile or incompatible and wild male mosquito; EM, the egg mortality achieved by mating between a wild female and a sterile /incompatible male.
